Nerds!
Wern't the blaster-fire colors different for the Imperial and the Rebellion starships? It was red for the Rebels, if I remember rightly, and that's a Sith color!
Could it be that the red color is not from being a bad or not-a-bad guy, but rather the color of choice among the underdogs? That RED is the color of the anger at being at a disadvantage? The color of your face when you get worked over by your enemy!
...Or perhaps it was the TIE fighters that had red lazer fire...
heh heh
Doc, is that the sound of a lonely rancor? You don't waste your time. Put a big arrow over the padawan for the Sith, then throw a mob and a Rancor at them first thing. This episode begins with all of the subtlety of A New Hope! Awesome!

No, rebal X-Wings have red blaster cannons. TIEs have green. I think it was partly astetic choice, as the X-Wings were painted red/orange colors and the TIEs were gray to black.
It's also worth noting that individual bad guys carrying a red saber screams evilness and rage, while individual heros with green or blue seem calm and collected. Modified, of course, by the individual weilding it.
But red is also a power color and giving it to a mostly impersonal machine draws your focus, letting you form some sort of connection. They give it to the heros because they can control that connection and build on it.
Green, on the other hand, is a bit more repulsive when in laser form. Picture the TIEs or Stargate SG1's partical beams. You tend to shy away from it. Perfect for bad guys.
Mechanically, it could either be a focusing crystal/lens or an entirely different kind of blast.

Jedi boy! Run to the spaceship and don't look back!
Jedi boy! The miners are pissed, they don't seem friendly
And it looks like they won't cut no slack.
Jedi boy, you know you might be
Child of Prophecy,
Either you or him:
That whiny Anakin.
Jedi boy, you're outtasight,
You need a Jedi Knight to hone your might.
I'll put you to your tasks, stand you on your head.
While you're upside-down, make those rocks spin round!
Jedi boy! Follow Mikau Me and run like heck!
Jedi boy! He's over eight feet tall, like all kaminoans,
And most of that is neck!
Jedi boy, war has broken out,
And the Jedi Knights, without a doubt,
Gonna lead the clone force,
Because we Jedis are so frikkin' devout.
Jedi training is so vast,
Watch lightsabers deflect laser blasts!
A Jedi trick, a quick wrist-flick,
You know it's our duty to look so slick.
You know it's our duty to look so slick.

Duty. Our duty!
Duty. Our duty!

Duty. You know it's our duty.
Duty. You know it's our duty.
Duty. You know it's our duty.
You know it's duty. Our duty.
Duty. You know's it's duty.
Jedi boy! This is our last chance to make it safe aboard.
Jedi boy! They're closing in fast, and that bomb can't be ignored.
Jedi boy, what's that awful roar? He sounds awful sore,
Screaming with anger, do you think it just might be a rancor?
Jedi boy, get your ass inside, and thank the Force you did not get fried.
With any luck at all the bomb'll take out that ticked-off monster.
It's Jedi fast retreat. Make sure you take a seat.

And with good reason! I don't know how many of you are Frank Zappa fans, but the following song, sung by Magnus Turon, is a parody of Zappa's "Disco Boy" and is based on the events of the latest update.

Yep, and the imps had green. Oddly as I recall it was reversed for hand held weapons. It may be more a general thing and not apply to sig/iconic characters. and I'd check but tapes are too much of a pain, come on DVD's!
